Meanwhile, creator Michel Ancel discussed the project's development, saying it remains in "active development" but might not be released before 2013.

"We won't make promises that we can't keep. We are in an active creation stage and at this moment we are only focusing on the game and making it the best game that we can. That decision would just distract us from that objective. I can say that it's a very ambitious game and we need some tech to achieve that ambition," Ancel explained in an interview last year (via NeoGaf).

"We create it first, then we'll see what can run it. We don't say 2013 because we don't know when it will come. We're working to create a great game and it needs more tech."

Speaking about the game's influences, Ancel denied that Mirror's Edge was an inspiration, suggesting, instead, that it is closer to Prince of Persia or Assassin's Creed.

"We had this concept even before Mirror's Edge launched. And we have a different approach to the first-person perspective that Mirror's Edge has. Prince of Persia and Assassin's Creed are closer to what we have in mind with the control of the character in a third-person perspective.

"We use a very dynamic camera that shakes a lot during the action, to add life to the camera giving the impression of an action news cover team following Jade. Maybe that could be similar to Mirror's Edge, but the game itself is very different," he added.
